IS YOUR MEMORY STABLE OR DECLINING?

     These mental exercises were worked out by Zaldy S. Tan and George Rebok of Johns Hopkins Medical Center. They say, “The following set of questions will create a baseline that you can use to help determine whether your memory is stable or declining. Answer the questions now, then repeat the exercises in six months to compare your performance over time.”
